Moodles

A Moodle is an indicator of what emotional and physical effects your character is currently feeling, similar to status effects in role-playing games. There are currently nineteen moodles in the game.

List of Moodles

File:Anxiety.gif Anxiety

The Anxiety Moodle will appear when the player is either sick or surrounded by zombies behind door or window. Currently, the only 3 ways to treat Anxiety are smoking Cigarettes, taking some distances between you and your enemies or talking with an NPC. When the player is sick, the Anxiety Moodle will persistently popup, mimicking the worries of a probable zombie infection, which is not always the case, it can sometimes be a regular sickness. The only way to verify that you aren't infected is to look at your body. Are there any bites or scratches? If not, you aren't infected.

Anxious

"On Edge"

Agitated

"Nervous and Jumpy"

Stressed

"Sweaty Palms. Gnawing Fears."

Nervous Wreck

"Terrified"

Anger

The anger moodles pops up for both sides when NPCs reject team requests made by a player or another NPC. Although the "irritated" moodle does not do anything, the "annoyed" moodle will disable friendly reactions. The angry moodle will then disable neutral reactions, and only the angry attitude will be left. If the player goes as far as the "furious" moodle, then the player is likely to engage in a duel to death with a NPC.

Irritated

"Bit Narked Off"

Annoyed

"Can't Respond Positively"

Angry

"Can Only Respond Angrily"

Furious

"Likely to start a Fight"

File:Moodle bleeding.png Bleeding

The character is losing blood from an open wound, and therefore losing health. The severity levels - judged by the intensity of the moodle background color - dictate how quickly the character is losing vitality. This moodle can be removed by using bandages.

File:Moodle bored.png Bored

The character is bored from remaining indoors for too long or for doing nothing outdoors. This moodle can be removed by reading books, newspapers, magazines, or writing journals/doodles, or spending time being active outdoors. As the moodle's intensity increases, so does the risk of becoming unhappy.

Getting Bored

"Occupy yourself, or seek entertainment"

Bored

"In danger of becoming unhappy"

Very Bored

"High chance of becoming unhappy"

Extremely bored

"Very high chance of becoming unhappy"

File:Moodle cold.png Cold

The character has remained out in the rain long enough to contract the cold. While suffering from the cold the character will occasionally - and often - sneeze. Periodic sneezing will make noise which can attract any nearby zombies to your location where you last sneezed from, the sound of which can fortunately be dampened with tissues, preventing that. To use the tissues place them in one of your main slots.

Runny nose

"Slight chance of sneezing"

The sniffles

"Prone to sneezing"

Has a cold

"Sneezing and Coughing. Speed and healing reduced."

Has a nasty cold

"Sneezing and Coughing. Speed and healing severely reduced."

File:Moodle dead.png Deceased

The character has taken too much damage, losing all of their health and has passed away.

Deceased

"High chance of becoming rat food"

File:Moodle drunk.png Drunk

The character has drunk alcohol and has become intoxicated. Drinking more will lead to becoming even more drunk. When drunk the character will struggle to walk in a straight line. Accuracy is also diminished. This moodle will disappear over time, with sleep speeding up the process. With the light drinker perk you will immediately become utterly shit-faced with only half a bottle of whiskey.

A bit tipsy

"Had some booze"

Inebriated

"Coordination slightly impaired"

Plastered

"Coordination impaired"

Utterly Shit-Faced

"Coordination Severely impaired"

File:Moodle endurance.png Exhausted

The character is tired from running or exerting themselves by attacking too much. This moodle can be removed by stopping and standing still to rest, or by walking instead of running. Being encumbered, even slightly, can substantially increase the rate at which the player tires. The more exhausted the player is, the longer it will take for them to recover, which can be dangerous when swarmed. Their strength and speed also diminish as they become more exhausted.

Moderate Exertion

"Rest your legs"

The character is becoming exhausted.

High Exertion

"Can't Run"

The character is exhausted.

Excessive Exertion

"Can barely walk"

The character is very exhausted. Usually happens after running a very far distance, when the character is very encumbered or when the character has swung his weapon repeatedly.

Out Of Breath

"Can barely move"

The character is extremely exhausted and will not be able to move. Usually happens after running a very far distance, when the character is very encumbered or when he has swung his weapon repeatedly.
Note: The character will still be able to swing every weapon except the Sledgehammer.

File:Moodle heavyLoad.png Encumbered

The character is carrying too many items and is unable to move at their usual speed. This moodle can be removed by dropping items, placing them in containers, or by consuming the proper items. The total weight assumes you have no other positive or negative moodles that affect strength. As the moodle increases the player will be unable to do more actions before becoming exhausted. Eventually leading to health loss from back injuries.

(Note: The numbers below is for a default, normal status with no Hauling Skill or Hunger Moodle positive/negative effect.)

Total Weight: 8+

"Carrying a little too much"

The character is encumbered.

Hungover

This moodle that pops up indicates that you have been staying too long outside while or after intoxication. Only solution is to stay in indoors. (This moodle does not affect your character.)

File:Moodle hungry.png Hungry

This moodle represents the character's hunger state. A red background dictates that the character needs to eat food. A green background shows that the character is well fed. Being fed boosts strength and healing rate, depending on the amount of food consumed, while being hungry has the opposite effect (reducing strength and healing rate).

Also, depending on your Hunger status, your Carrying Capacity will change.

This moodle can be removed by going indoors out of the rain for a while, standing by a camp fire, or drying yourself off with a dish towel. It is one of the few things that does not match how things work in real life, as in real life you do not get a cold from the rain/snow/cold weather but from exposure to others with a cold. It spreads in real life more during cold weather only because we are cooped up inside together.
